OLD SAWS IN RHYME.

The better the day is the better the deed:
The bitter is oftentimes bitten indeed
Accidents happen in families best:
IT'S very vile bird that viii foul its own nest
brain that is idle-s the devils workshop:
Go farther and fare worse; froth comes TO the
top.
Tro cooks better have than one doctor, you
know:
Beauty's but skin deep: his cake is all dough
Cheerful spirit toll sweetens; all things have
an end:
Be sure OF new ere you cut an old friend.
Dead mems shoes ii well; circumstances change
cases;
Practice makes perfect; stern chase a long
chase is.
II makes all the difference whose OK is gored;
Over his head hangs Damoclcs' sword.
BE quicker than lightning: but not in a hurry;
A horse o. a different color; don't worry.
Be sure that your sins will some day find you
out:
Take always the trick when you linger il doubt
IT'S man who proposes and God who disposes;
End needle il hay-stack; his bed isn't roses.
No rose without thorns; give the devil his due;
Six OF one is Of tother a half dozen, too.
Fingers were made before forks; fool or knave
Matches in Heaven are made: close shave.
Poets are born and not made; up TO snu1;
Sufficient to-day is the evil thereof.
Who won't when he may when he will shall
have nay;
Experience IS dear teacher TO pay

Smuggling Diamonds

Some of the American methods of
smuggling diamonds are origin al. any
way. and peculiar case recently
brought to light in New York. and
never before in print, rather pictur-
esquely illustrated this. A man trav-
eled constantly between Havre and
New York. re-engaging passage in the
same steamer trip after trip. He kept to
himself and affected moodiness. and
his continuous voyages were taken to
be the whim of wealthy and eccentric
gentleman. without family, who loved
the sea, and who preferred the COM
forts of Cunarder to the risk and re-
sponsibility connected with a private
cruiser. He seemed to have a dislike
TO shore, and cared to stay on it but
little. A gay young fellow used to
come to see him off at New York, and.
after a brief, boyish parting. would
leap ashore at the last moment This
jocund young soul carried with him
every time large quantity of dis
monds, which his distracted and eccen-
trio confederate had secreted in hole
which he had cut in the state-room he
continually occupied. The steward ac-
cidentally discovered this coy niche
one day. and then all was over for the
gentlemanly lover of the sea--Chicago

Useful and Dainty Articles for Both
Ladies and Gentlemen.
Wooden fichus for cold weather are
very desirable. and sometimes add
greatly to hurried morning toilet.
They are made somewhat in the shape
of scarf, only pointed at the back to
reach the waist and long enough in
front to tie back about the waist if de-
sired. The prettiest Of tLase are made
of soft merino. either white, crimson
or blue, and are finished with deep
hem of feather-stich and crochet
edging of the same color. Some of
the warmest are made Of very heavy
blanket flannel and bound in bright
ribbon, while even palmer. though
very useful ones. are made of dark
canton flannel. A yard and half of
material, thirty inches wide, will make
a full-sized one.
Dainty little opera or party wraps
are now made at trifling expense
A pretty one for a young lady is made
out of a piece of white eider-dOwn
cloth, two yards square. This is lined
with thin, rose-colored silk. the fluffy
side left out, and is bordered with
swan SHOWN. One side is formed
into hood. This is done by doubling
the side to the center and measuring
off half yard down each side from
it. A wide, pink ribbon, or an elastic,
which is better. forms this into a hood
about the face, and a ribbon is also
fastened about the neck OF the hood.
A large bow of pink ribbon orna-
ments the top.
A slipper and glove bag to go with
such cloak is made out of pink satin.
lined with white canton flannel and
bordered with swan's-down. These
little bags are very useful, as we'll as
ornamental, and save the loss Of many
fans, handkerchiefs and gloves. A
tiny comb and powder puff, pins and a
needle and thread can also be carried
in them. and how useful are all of these
every one who has been to ball or
party can easily testify.
The newest shaving cases are made OF
velvet or plush in the shape of little
book; brown and dark-green are the
favorite colors. and the name of the
owner s embroidered in old English
script on the outside. The inside is
lined with satin of some bright color,
and the shaving is of cream color or
pure white tissue highly perfumed. A
long pasteboard box to hold the razor.
the strop and other implements is
covered to correspo d, and has the

After the brasses, the blue china re-

THE PLAY IN CHINA.
Peculiar stage Customs Prevailing In the

Peculiar stage Customs PrevAlAlng IN tho

As there is no curtain, so also are
there no acts; performers coming in
and out of the two doors-the thread
of the story never broken-until their
work is finished There is no attempt
at grouping or artistic disposition Of
the characters. for there are always
many on the stage who have nothing
to do with the play. To stranger it
is difficult to tell who is engaged in tho
action and who is not. for the stage,
being low and unincumbered by floats,
the occupants of the front seats are
constantly climbing up and down.
sauntering at the sides or into the
greenroom. conversing with actors or
talking to the musicians. 1t is there
fore necessary, without interfering
more than is needful with the freedom
of the promenaders, to place janitOrs at
either door to keep them clear for en-

talk does not interfere with the per-

INQUEST ON THE DEAD DYNAMITER.
Identified ms Cohen, an American Associate
of Suspects-A Plot Disclosed.
ESPECIAL CABLE TO THE EVENING

ESPECIAL CABLE TO THE EVENING WORLD
LONDON, Oct. 26. -The Coroner's inquest held on
the body of the American found dead in South
wark, and believed to be a d%ynamiter, has led to
the identification of the man. His name is Cohen,
alias Brown.
The disclosures made at the inquest leave little
doubt that outrages were planned for the week Of
the Queens Jubilee, and that there is a plot on
foot to kill Mr.. Balfour, Chief Secretary for Ire
land, on his visit to Birmingham In November.
A newspaper cutting referring to a rumor that
an attempt would be made to assassinate Mr.. Bal
four at Birmingham has been found in the pocket
of Michael Hawkins.
Testimony taken showed that Cohen was q con-
slant visitor at the house of Melville, the London
agent Of the Clan-na-Gael, also that he consorted
In America with Michael Hawkins, living ut No.
1889 North Second Street, Philadelphia, and with
Stack, O'Malley and other men the London
police know to he members of the Clan-na-Gael.
The evidence SO far, however, Is insufficient to
justify the making Of any arrests here. II was
proved that the mans death was due to bronchitis,
and a verdict was given that he died from natural
causes.
